[COMPLETED][CLASS] Intro to Pathfinder | Wednesday 12 April | 01:00 EVE Time
Posted: 2023.03.31 19:55
NOTE: This is a first run of a proposed class for E-UNI adoption. There may be some lingering rough edges in the slides and/or presentation flow. To that end and more-so than usual, I would greatly appreciate any and all feedback on this class both via this thread, and via the post-class feedback form.
----
This class is an introduction to the Pathfinder wormhole mapping tool used by EVE University and by many other corporations and alliances across EVE. Pathfinder's feature-richness can be intimidating at first, especially to newfriends who are learning the quirks of Wormhole space at the same time. This class aims to cut through some of that complexity in order to make Pathfinder and E-UNI's Wormhole Community more accessible.
This class will be delivered as a live demo of the tool, with supporting slides if/where necessary. Voice comms will be via the E-UNI Mumble with slides and live demo shared via the E-UNI Discord. Questions are welcome throughout with a dedicated Q&A session at the end of class. There is no in-game, practical session associated with this class.
When: Wednesday 12 April, 01:00 EVE Time
Where: E-UNI Mumble and Discord
Duration: 1.5 hours-ish
Topics Covered:
- E-UNI Alliance Auth registration, and access to E-UNI's instance of Pathfinder.
- A working understanding of wormhole mechanics is strongly recommended commensurate with E-UNI's Introduction to Wormhole Mechanics class.
- Mumble registration and access - make sure you have access to the E-UNI Mumble sorted out well before the class begins. Use this guide for set-up: EVE Uni Mumble
- Access to the EVE Uni Discord Classrooms
